Reduce Inflow and Infiltration at the Source with Our Pipeline Inspection and Grouting Equipment

STOP I&I IN SEWERS, LATERALS, AND MORE!


Inflow and infiltration (I&I) are persistent challenges for wastewater collection systems, leading to excessive treatment costs, regulatory compliance issues, and environmental concerns. The key to reducing I&I lies in addressing the problem at its source—leaky joints, cracked pipes, and faulty lateral connections. Our advanced pipeline inspection and grouting equipment provide municipalities and contractors with the tools to identify and seal infiltration points efficiently, reducing overall system strain and extending infrastructure lifespan.


The Impact of Inflow and Infiltration:

I&I occurs when groundwater or stormwater enters sewer systems through defects in pipes, manholes, and lateral connections. This additional flow increases the volume of wastewater that treatment plants must process, leading to:

  • Higher operational costs
  • Increased risk of sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs)
  • Premature wear on infrastructure
  • Potential fines and regulatory non-compliance

By targeting and treating I&I at the source, municipalities and contractors can reduce these negative impacts and improve system efficiency.


Advanced Inspection for Precise Problem Identification:

Detecting the source of I&I requires precise and reliable inspection technology. Our state-of-the-art pipeline inspection equipment, including high-definition (HD) cameras and robotic crawlers, allows operators to:

By using our inspection equipment and software, municipalities and contractors can create proactive maintenance strategies that prevent unnecessary system failures and expenses.


Trenchless Grouting: A Cost-Effective, Long-Lasting Solution:

Once I&I sources are identified, trenchless grouting provides an effective, non-disruptive method for sealing leaks. Our grouting systems allow operators to:

  • Seal pipe joints and laterals with precision by injecting specialized grout using our advanced grout inspection vehicles and equipment, ensuring long-lasting, watertight integrity.
  • Extend the life of your infrastructure cost-effectively, without disruptive excavation, using our CUES Lock products.
  • Prevent infiltration and reduce excess flow into water, wastewater, and stormwater systems with our efficient Packer solutions.
  • Simplify the grouting process with our Easy Grout software, featuring a user-friendly graphical interface, built-in help files, tooltips, and recommended settings to guide you every step of the way.


Grouting is a proven, cost-effective solution that helps maintain system integrity while minimizing repair costs and service disruptions. Our grouting equipment and software solutions can:

  • Improve wastewater system performance
  • Lower treatment costs by reducing excess flow
  • Enhance regulatory compliance and environmental protection

The Name Says It ALL - EASY GROUT


Say goodbye to mechanical dials, analog switches, and buttons! Our Easy Grout system is a fully computerized grout control solution that consolidates valves and electrical controls into a single, mountable instrumentation cabinet. Its intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) walks you through each step of the grouting process with built-in help files, tooltips, and smart prompts—perfect for both new users and those returning after time away.


Automated logic recommends settings based on inputs like pipe size and depth, streamlining setup and operation. And because the control panel is now a software interface, it’s no longer tethered to the equipment—install it anywhere with a wired or wireless connection.

STRUCTURAL POINT REPAIR SYSTEM - CUES LOCK


We are proud to offer a no-dig structural point repair solution, CUES LOCK. Lining entire pipe segments to solve localized problems can be costly. Crossbore strikes, cracks, and separated joints, just to name a few, can be repaired in as little as 30 minutes, with no digging. The gear required to install CUES LOCK is very minimal, and on average, it will pay for itself in the first one to three repairs. This saves significant time and money versus dig and replace or traditional lining, as well as improving safety for install crews by limiting exposure. 


• Sleeve constructed with a 316SS core, rated to 100-year service life

• Available from 6” to 108”+ diameter and 12” to 36” lengths

• Sleeves can be installed in series to repair longer defects

• Can be used with your existing CCTV system
